Title: Frozen Whisker Bizcutt
Post by: Utah on June 04, 2020, 12:31:38 AM: lol Anyone ever experience a Whisker Biscuit ever freezing up on them in really cold ass weather? If so I wonder if a guy could spray something on it? It was never a problem on Washington's wet side. But Now I've been In Idaho for the last 5 years and picking up Archery again... The whisky Bisky is just flat money. Arrow an't gonna fall over or out. Not a fan of anything attached to a string to operate.

Thanks

Even if I tried it probably would have heard the arrow scratching along the bristles and busted me lol. Drop away for the win. The arrows not going to fall out of a contained drop away either.

Just wax them, picked up that tip from calling the carbon express folks when I picked up some Maxiam arrows. There will be less noise on any rest. Been shooting WB for years there is really nothing that can go wrong with them, nothing to worry about.

Well it’s the arrows scratching across the bristles or the bristles scratching the arrow.. Either way. It makes noise specially when iced up. Wax is a cool trick.
